QUOTE OF THE WEEK

‘I had a little mud on the ball and that caused it to go off line. It was a little unfortunate timing there.’ On the short list for under statement of the year is this gem from American pro Tyler Duncan, who sprayed his ball into the crowd during the second round of the Byron Nelson Classic last week. Given the balls truck his wife Maria on the head, he must have one understanding partner to think it was nothing more than a little unfortunate. Duncan went onto finish tied fifth and earn a cheque for £210,000, so something nice for his suffering spouse wouldn’ t go a miss.
